In the Transportation and Housing & Urban Development appropriations bill, Rep. Jo Bonner joined Sen. Jeff Sessions in securing a $735,000 earmark for the Mobile Downtown Airport for ramp rehabilitation and drain repair.

The Mobile Regional Airport Authority employed Van Scoyoc Associates to lobby Congress; according to page two of their 2007 mid-year report, Van Scoyoc lobbied on the “Transportation, Treasury, Housing & Urban Development…” appropriations, including “airport infrastructure and service issues.”

As noted in this post, the employees and the PAC of Van Scoyoc Associates have contributed $18,736 to Bonner’s campaigns since 2002.
